Seeing a doctor in UK for the first time, yours drug will most likely be a bloody SSRI. Even if your anxiety is so severe that you can talk. Maybe the doctor will be particularly stupid and fall into the marketing that the latest atypical anti psychotic. If you do not have psychotic symptoms DO NOT TAKE AN anti psychotic. It is likely that such a drug will only make your symptoms worse.
Other determinants of resting metabolism include thyroid hormones and catecholamines, genetics, body temperature, and in women, the phase of the menstrual cycle. An increased release of thyroid hormones or catecholamines increases RMR. Conversely, a reduction in energy intake specifically decreases triiodothyronine (T3) levels and norepinephrine release, which can subsequently decrease metabolic rate.
The thyroid hormones triiodothyronine (T3) and its prohormone thyroxine (T4) are hypothesized to promote carcinogenesis through their important role in cell differentiation, growth, and metabolism [1]. The hormones also promote tumor induced angiogenesis [2], and have been shown to increase prostate cancer cell proliferation in vitro [3], [4].
